    Crushed Oreos and melted butter are all you need to make this crust. It’s ready in minutes and works with so many desserts — try it with my Chocolate Mousse Pie, Oreo Cheesecake, or No Bake Oreo Cheesecake. You can even swap it with Golden Oreos for a fun twist.

    This Oreo pie crust keeps its shape beautifully once chilled, making it perfect for creamy fillings or ice cream cakes. Store it in the fridge or freezer, ready to fill when inspiration hits.

    Ingredients for Oreo crust

    >>For a baked version, bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 8 minutes, then let it cool completely.

    • Oreo Cheesecake – A classic creamy filling on a crunchy cookie crust like this Nutella cheesecake.

    Tips for this recipe

    • Use fresh Oreos – Stale cookies won’t give that perfect crunch.
    • Crush finely – The finer the crumbs, the smoother and sturdier your crust.
    • Press firmly – Use a glass to pack the crust evenly for clean slices.
    • Chill before filling – Keeps the base firm and easy to cut.

    Notes

    Storage: Keep the crust in the fridge (covered) for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

    Tips:

    • Crush finely – Smooth, even crumbs make a sturdier crust.
    • Press evenly – Use the bottom of a glass to get a flat surface and sharp edges.
    • Don’t overbake – The crust should look set, not dry.
    • Try flavor swaps – Golden, mint, or peanut butter Oreos work great too.
